The dual role of calcium in synaptic plasticity at the motor endplate
Joseph, S. R. H.; Steuber, Volker; Willshaw, D. J. (PLENUM PRESS DIV PLENUM PUBLISHING CORP, 1997)Focal blockade of postsynaptic acetylcholine receptors (AChRs) in a small region of the neuromuscular junction may cause long-term synapse elimination at that site. Blockade of the whole junction does not cause synapse ... -
Durability of similar self-compacting concrete batches produced in two different EU laboratories
Sfikas, Ioannis P.; Kanellopoulos, Antonis; Trezos, Konstantinos G.; Petrou, Michael F. (2013)The present study intends to evaluate the sensitivity of self-compacting concrete (SCC) mixtures, cast in two different laboratories of the European Union, with a focus on rheological parameters, mechanical characteristics ... -
Durability performance of self-compacting concrete
Kanellopoulos, Antonios; Petrou, Michael F.; Ioannou, Ioannis (2012-12)Although self compacting concrete (SCC) is currently used in many countries, there is a fundamental lack of the intrinsic durability of the material itself. This article presents the outcomes from a research program on ... -
Durability restoration of cementitious composites via micro encapsulated mineral repair agents
Litina, C.; Kanellopoulos, A.; Al-Tabbaa, A. (CRC Press/Balkema, 2016)This research proposes and evaluates an embedded self-sustained restoration system based on the trigger-release of microencapsulated repair agents within the concrete matrix. Micron-sized polymeric capsules carrying a ... -
Dynamic Behavior Analysis and Synchronization of Memristor-Coupled Heterogeneous Discrete Neural Networks
Ma, Minglin; Xiong, Kangling; Li, Zhijun; Sun, Yichuang (2023-01-10)Continuous memristors have been widely studied in recent years; however, there are few studies on discrete memristors in the field of neural networks. In this paper, a four-stable locally active discrete memristor (LADM) ... -
Dynamic optical characterization of NEMS resonators
Coudron, L.; Casset, F.; Durand, C.; Renaux, P.; Ollier, E.; Bloch, D.; Vairac, P. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2008)The small sizes of the MEMS or NEMS electromechanical resonators and their single wafer, multi frequencies possibilities has focused tremendous interest in the development of demonstrators using standard CMOS process. But ... -
A Dynamic Peer-to-Peer Electricity Market Model for a Community Microgrid with Price-Based Demand Response
Alfaverh, Fayiz; Denai, Mouloud; Sun, Yichuang (2023-02-17)Peer-to-Peer (P2P) energy sharing enables prosumers within a community microgrid to directly trade their local energy resources such as solar photovoltaic (PV) panels, small-scale wind turbines, electric vehicle battery ... -
Dynamic Row Activation Mechanism for Multi-Core Systems
Alawneh, Tareq A.; Kirner, Raimund; Menon, Catherine (ACM Press, 2021-05-13)The power that stems from modern DRAM devices represents a sig- nificant portion of the overall system power in modern computing systems. In multi-core systems, the competing cores share the same memory banks. The memory ... -
Dynamics analysis and image encryption application of Hopfield neural network with a novel multistable and highly tunable memeristor
Yao, Wei; Liu, Jiapei; Sun, Yichuang; Zhang, Jin; Yu, Fei; Cui, Li; Lin, Hairong (2023-11-18)Building artificial neural network models and studying their dynamic behaviors is extremely important from both a theoretical and practical standpoint due to the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence . In addition ... -
Dynamics of virtual urban networks: transactions, connections, urban memory, resilience potential, robustness and edge of collapse
Jankovic, Ljubomir (2021-07-13)A virtual urban network is a network of communications and transactions that is overlaid on the physical urban assemblage. Producers and consumers in a physical urban environment make connections on the basis of product ... -
